Nebula reads uploaded documents and presents a Reading for review. After the agreement is signed, accepted source-backed obligations can become delivery items. This page takes you from sign up to a working engagement.

Start an engagement

From the dashboard, choose New engagement and give it a name. An engagement is the work, people, decisions, risks, evidence and commercial positions that Nebula helps you manage together.

If you would rather look around first, choose Load sample engagement. This option remains on your dashboard until you create your first engagement. Nebula builds a worked example you can explore without uploading anything.

Choose your workspace

A new engagement asks whether the workspace is for just you or for shared delivery.

Just me. Start with one joined organisation and no live invitation. Its members use the authorised workspace. A matched reading keeps its source link.

With the other party. Invite them into the same authorised workspace. Journal and question-and-answer entries retain their author and acting organisation.

You can invite another participant later without losing the material already in the engagement.

Add the source material

Open the engagement and add the documents that define the work. These can include an agreement, scope of work, brief, grant, specification, change order, purchase order or related correspondence.

Nebula extracts requirements and builds the working delivery plan from the source wording. You can review the interpretation, add guidance and correct your own position while the original source and earlier history remain available.

Review the delivery plan

Review the requirements, responsibilities, dependencies, dates and commercial positions Nebula has organised. The shared record keeps source observations, Nebula's interpretations, participant positions, accepted decisions and disputes distinct.

When the baseline is signed, Nebula records each signature and lock time. Later variations and date changes remain separate. Nebula applies recorded organisation permissions to agreement and baseline signing, variation approval, payment certification, notices and item disputes.

Manage the engagement

During delivery:

The workspace separates delivery items, schedule, budget, risks, evidence and activity.
Specific item actions, blockers and questions can create linked in-app notifications.
Variation and extension requests keep their status, decision and rationale. Supported approvals keep before and after values.
Where proof is enabled, an eligible recorded event can create up to two confirmation records. Each reports its own state.
A qualifying two-party delivery event can change one of five reputation scores. Solo engagements, sample data and same-organisation events do not contribute.

The engagement page shows the current work, the decisions that need attention and the record of what occurred.
